 When I follow a link online to an old version of Tor Browser Bundle, e.g.

 https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/3.6.6/torbrowser-install-3.6
 .6_en-US.exe

 I receive a 404 message. Instead of displaying a default 404 page, a Tor
 Browser specific 404 response should helpfully redirect users to the
 latest version of Tor Browser, either by providing a helpful message such
 as "Click here to download Tor Browser" or via a 301 redirect.
